Imagine You...

ENRICHING MINDS! DEVELOPING CHARACTER!

Imagine Harrisburg Pike Community School is a growing K-6
Charter school located at 680 Harrisburg Pike in Columbus, Ohio. We provide educational opportunities for more
than 400 students in the area. Our
school is in its seventh year of educating students to become successful
leaders in our communities.
The highly qualified teachers at Harrisburg Pike have high
expectations for their students, guiding them to engage in critical thinking
and application of skills. We provide a
balanced literacy approach to reading and writing, instructing with authentic
literature and meaningful writing. Reading and writing skills are integrated in
all content areas.
We believe in concrete, hands-on learning using real-world
applications in mathematics. Daily use
of math manipulatives help students to gain a true understanding of the meaning
of the world of mathematics. Students
are taught to not just “DO” math, rather, they “THINK” mathematically.
Content areas are often taught in project-based learning
opportunities. Cooperative learning is a
method used to share ideas and communicate to each other and to the world
effectively.
Teachers progress monitor students frequently to make sure
they are on track and moving toward mastery of high-level standards.
Character education is important to us as we learn and work
together in a safe and cooperative environment where everyone is treated
respectfully. We value the whole
student, academically, emotionally, socially and physically.
We offer a technology course all year long to help each
student utilize the most current tools available to communicate and receive
information about our world. We also
offer semester courses of library science, art, physical education, and
music.
Students can be bussed to our school from either Columbus
City or Southwestern districts. We offer
free breakfast and lunch for ALL students. Kindergarteners attend school for a full
day. Tuition is FREE!
Please call or come visit us for a tour and more information.
